Red - Wogma Readers Reviews

Red

Bruce Willis, Morgan Freeman, John Malkovich, Helen Mirren Dir: Robert Schwentke
wogma rating: Add to 'must watch' list (?)
quick review: RED stands for Retired and Extremely Dangerous. That's pretty much all the backdrop you're going to need on the lead characters. Though the story is adapted from the three-issue comic book series, it is much more comic than the comics itself. For once the comic is more darker than its movie. By introducing more characters and comic elements, they compromised on the story and made it a character driven film. And it worked. It's a must watch for the sake of the cast. But if you're not that big a fan, you can skip watching it in a theater.

TimELiebe:

Fun review, Mr. Thakkar! Yes, the screenplay is functional at best, but the cast carries the day in fine style - Dame Helen saying, in that grandmotherly tone of voice, "I kill people, dear", is to die for. You forgot to mention Richard Dreyfuss brilliantly channeling (thankfully former!) US Vice President Dick Cheney once again in a relatively small but significant role - but since you gave a shout-out to Karl Urban (who's been around for nearly twenty years, but finally got noticed as "Bones" McCoy) I forgive you.

Don't believe this mostly dismissive reviews this got in the Mainstream Western Media - it's a great adventure romp, starring highly-talented actors clearly relishing releasing their Inner Badass....

Aniket Thakkar:

My bad, for forgetting Mr. Dreyfuss. As for the dismissive reviews, I guess they were either expecting too much or expecting something entirely different out of the movie. Like I said, for the sake of the actors, it was fun watching the film for me. I'd first noticed Karl in Bourne Supremacy. He did great there too. (I'm going to ignore Priest)

Thank you for reading the review and taking time to comment.
